I like the game and it works very well, but the fight with the monsters is very long for me, as a personal opinion it would lower the life of the monsters and the character or that each impact would take much more energy. When I have 3 or 4 fights, the game tires me.
I got all 30 crystals and fought the boss but I couldn't beat him

Same here and the response is slow due to INKEY$ translated only 1 direction is working each time.
I need move and fire

Thank you all for your useful critique (it helps me a lot to improve my next games :) )
So in the mean time, have fun with this MCODED Missile-Command Clone called "SPACE-BASE"
Everything you need to know, will be told in the game :)
but ... here are some useful hints:
  • 1. even if your laser is nearly useless, when the monsters cross the screen, fire at them when they are in the middle
    2. you cannot fire at an attacking monster.. they will destroy your base..
    3. ah yes any score above 32767 will be a sort of "you broke the counter hooray" thing
    4. even if there is no level choice protection (not enough ram to compile it...) stick with 1-20 its a good mix
I think, as far as I played the game, there are no bugs (just features ;) ) but if you find one, just tell me :)

Have fun with this one, while I move on to the next game...

Today I have finished The Cursed Woods.
I haven't fought any monsters until Chronos.
I've avoided going through bushes so I don't have to fight. And get all the pluses to have the maximum possible energy.
Against more energy you have more damage you do in your attack.
I wait for the second part.

Now I will try the new game, "SPACE-BASE"

Hey salvacam,
thanks for telling me (I feel somewhat a little bit proud, that someone plays my game), also have fun playing the new one.
I also tried BMX-Trial and I have to admit, that your games actually play better than mine at the moment and this challenges me :)
Have fun playing :)

Here's a new ZX81 game I've just released, Lunares Insaneum. It's essentially a conversion of the early Spectrum game Transversion. It comes complete with joystick and redefineable key options, high score table, demo mode and all that.

Link.
